Best gaming pc tower for R15,000? Complete noob here

[Shakawkaw000]

I wanted to attempt buying parts and building it myself, but work got busy.

Any links or advice on a good setup for R15k or under pre-built? Only thing i know is that i shouldn't expect a good GPU due to the microchip shortage lol

What do you want to game?

Mid core count, highest GHz cpu
16gb ram 3000mhz+

After you have bought the other basics (Case, PS, MB, storage) the rest would be for gpu.

Im looking for a pre-built since im guessing i wont save much after labor and parts anyway. Or is it better to buy every piece and build it yourself? Im looking to play Apex and Dota on high settings mostly, while also doing some video editing. Nothing major.

AMD R3 3300X 2.4K+-
MSI B450m Pro M2 Max 1.2K+-
Hyper X Fury 16Gb 3200 (CL16...) 1.9K+-
256gb nvme boot + 1Tb hdd 1.5k
650w 80+ Bronze psu 1K+-
Decent mid case for 800

+-7K for a GPU. At these prices you might get a 2070..

That leaves you with about 7K for a case and GPU which is nothing..maybe go used on carb.

No monitor or peripherals. Leave out the RGB

* Note I'm not a PC expert this is my 2C only.

This would be ace - I just don't think you will find a 3300X.

I'd also suggest this RAM as an alternative as it's cheaper and performs well.

Eish pc's are expensive... last time i had a top tier gaming spec pc was back in 2006 :/ thanks for the input! Ill research that build a bit. If its easy enough to learn ill even try building it myself

It's a really bad time to buy a PC.

You could piecemeal items together if you wanted to spread the cost out but prices have gone up since the ZAR/USD went AWOL and Trumps trade war a lone pushed items up by 25%.

Cheapest items at the moment are motherboards and RAM. PSUs are starting to drop in price but GPUs are just mad. AMD CPUs are still largely out of stock but Intel has stock.
